Two Castles Run anyone?

Flicking through an old copy of Runner's World I noticed there's a 10k race from Warwick Castle to Kenilworth Castle in mid June. This year's race is Sunday 12th June and registration opens on March 1st.

I'm gonna give it a go! The course looks mostly flat and it's all closed roads by the looks of things.

gonna keep my eye on this. It looks like a nice run and there's a hole in my running calendar in June, and it's not too far away. Flat sounds good too :)

Take a look at the terms and condition. don't do this, don't do that, no access here, no parking there. I've given up on the idea. Too much hassle.

Looks good. I might keep my eye on that for future years. This year I'm already signed up for our local Race for Life with mum and daughter.

Thanks for sharing. If you go for it be sure to post a run report ☺

Hi simonwilliamstutor! I haven't really done more than 5k- is there enough time to get up to 10k, do you think?

Absolutely. I did my first 10k about 8 weeks after completing c25k. Just try and gradually increase your running distance once a week and you should easily get there by mid June.
